Cash only, slow service, no seating. Not a very diverse clientele. One pool table that you may wait an hour+ for.

Cash only, queer friendly dive bar with nice people and strong cocktails

A beautiful atmosphere…. It’s somewhere I could definitely see myself wanting to hang out. However, I walked in and quickly realized I was the only black person and it was HUGE turn off…. I did have hope that as the oldest lesbian bar it would feel more diverse. Just a heads up if you’re a black queer person exploring new spaces. Come with friends?

Very jovial place and welcomes everyone! Had great times in a low key spot. Low key as in chill, not the great history of gingers as a Park Slope institution. That's why we love it!

I liked the place, weekday, for a beer. Took off a star because when you want to go out and escape the mambo jumbo…. The last thing you need is Zoran and that smile staring at you all night. Politics don’t belong in bars … just sayin

A lovely lesbian bar with welcoming and relaxing energy! The outdoor back patio is so cute and I love that they let you bring outside food in. The shirley temple was utterly delicious (with three cherries!!!) and only $3!

All of the nem, especially the ones cosplaying, made me extremely uncomfortable. I am excluded due to their presence in a place where I am the one who belongs and I should be able to feel welcome around only other wonem. It’s horrific.

I don’t even drink & wear this bar’s hat with pride. Community-driven events, fun dancing, always the best energy. Home sweet home.

Ginger's is a solid sapphic bar with regular cultural events. The only downside is that they are cash only
Classic chill sapphic space!! Support queer femme small businesses! :) Both outdoor and indoor spaces, dancing, pool, and bar. Note that she’s cash only, although there is an ATM on site. Lots of fun events!! Open late! : )

My friends and I went to Ginger’s earlier today after the pride parade in Manhattan. It had a great atmosphere and drinks. We wound up leaving to get food and were told we were welcome back to eat our food there as long as we cleaned up after ourselves. When we came back we were let in by the bouncer, but the bar tender called us over to re-check my friends ID. They asked her a bunch of questions related to her age and she answered every single one correctly but we were still kicked out. The bar tender was condescending and made a completely unnecessary comment to my friend. We’re turning 25 this year… They handled this unprofessionally and didn’t even use an ID scanner to verify the validity of it. It was very confusing because when we were in earlier, we were served alcohol without our IDs being checked by a different bar tender. I wish we had a better experience. The bar had a lot of potential.

One of my favorite bars! The outside area is so nice and so are the people who work here.
